| And how I love seeing Frodo come to that realization! Excellent! Author Reply: Thanks! | |

| INteresting! This is quite different to contrast the experiences of Pippin with Frodo-- this dialogue is a great start to something maybe even longer. It was good to see Frodo resolve some of his uncertainties with Pippin and this interaction is quite good to explore. I would like even more of this for it's not everyday you hear Frodo and Pippin interaction especially on such a weighty topic as in the last moment of Frodo and the Ring. Thank you sooooo much! Author Reply: Honestly, I don't know how much there is for either of them to say at this point. Frodo doesn't know anything more than he's already told Pippin, and he won't find anything out further until he sails. And Pippin's heard enough to want to back off. I'm so glad you enjoyed your fic!! | |

| This is wonderful! I'm glad (and surprised) he was so open with Pippin about what it was like and that he is trying to work it out and most glad that he knows there will be good to come at the end. I would love if you continued his journey here. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Thanks, but there's really nothing else for Frodo to say at this point. He did say something, though, because he loves Pippin and he owes it to him to at least try to explain what's happened to him. | |

| Such a very perceptive conversation. Pippin still has to ask. He can't not, that's Pippin-- it's not just curiousity, he cares. He knows he's prying, and he does it anyway. But a lot of people would just have Frodo clam up and refuse to answer; I think, with you, that Frodo would answer, though he knew Pippin wouldn't like the answer. And of course, the thing is, both Pippin and Frodo were right about the Fire and the Ring. It's a paradox, but Frodo was both co-erced into claiming the Ring, AND did it of his will, not precisely free will, but his own just the same. And Frodo will work it out. I love the last line. You are really on a roll with last lines! Author Reply: Frodo may not have wanted to answer, no, but he owes it to Pippin to try, because he loves him and he thinks Pippin deserves to know what's happened to him. And I think a part of Frodo also wanted to see if he could put it into words and get someone to understand--this definitely takes place in my mind before he's come up with the idea of telling the last bits through Sam. Frodo will work it out, and I think it's important that he realized there was something to work out as well. I don't know how he'd have been able to deal, otherwise. | |
